Justin Verlander; Last 2 playoffs vs A's (4 starts): 31 IP, ER, 43 K, 0.29 ERA, 30 straight scoreless innings

Thank God we needed Max to come out of the pen in game 4.

 

[Sbee]

smyly should be in here

 

[biggunsbob]

A's batters have to be ecstatic with this move by Jim.. sure hope it works..

True Benoit gives up hits instead of walks

i think youre thinking of rodneys fluke last year.

he reverted to his garbage self this year.

I like staying away from Crisp, make him hit it to the left side.

 

[manchild98]

love this ump's zone tonight.

 

[bdtay1971]

Nice

 

[Sbee]

I think you put Iggy in at SS, but I dunno if they move Jhonny to 3rd or not.

or keep JP in and put iggy at 3b, he played there for about 20 games this year with boston

What?

Benoit has been as reliable as any closer we have had in years, including Valverde's perfect year.

He has been a little up and down his last 5-6 appearances though.

 

[manchild98]

big out

 

[Thumb]

Or to Omar...it's all good.

1 down

 

[johnny2x2x]

Just get Crisp out and I think it's done.

YES!

 

[mhughes0021]

huge out....

 

[Sbee]

huge, huge, huge out

 

[dpinsea]

Nice play omar

 

[tigermud]

Huge monster co co puff out

 

[bdtay1971]

For a low scoring game this one has been long.

 

[gotime909]

smyly should be in here

If you're gonna pull your starter for your closer why would you bring in Smyly??? Benoit has been very good against Crisp.

 

[bdtay1971]

He is swinging at everything. Nowhere near the zone with this pitch.
